Abstract
A system for sharing a device between two independent software platforms and for access control of a network device across the two independent software platforms is provided. The system has a first computing device operating on a first software platform for authenticating at least a first user and accessing a first user's access list having at least one address of a second user. The system also has a second computing device operable with the same first user and a second different software platform. A destination across the first and the second software platforms is mapped to selectively control the device by the second user from the first user's access list with the second user operating on the second computing device.
